Trey111Downgrade from previous modelsI have worn every iteration of Guides since the Guide 7, and I loved the Guide ISO. The ISO2 seems to have lower profile in the back, and my foot slips out when using Superfeet insoles. Using marathon lacing helps, but then the shoes are tight across the top of my foot. There was no problem with previous versions. After ~200 miles, the inner lining at my heal has worn through.

SpeedyDadNice update with minor issuesI have been running in Guides since iteration 6. Love them for training runs and races. The Guide ISO2 is no exception. Although it feels a tad larger than the ISO and the other previous models, the run is smooth and comfy. I got the shoe when it came out and ran the Chicago Marathon in it with just 30 miles of break. I think I could have run in them out of the box. I am now at 630 miles, and feel that they need replacing. It held up well, and I am happy with it except for two issues:
First, the sock liners have a tendency to come loose and wobble around to the point that they start folding over when the shoe gets a little wet. It's not the first time that this happened (my Freedom ISOs and the Guide ISOs had the same issue). I never had this with other brands, and it can be really annoying. Once it's crumpled up it must be replaced (which Saucony did).
Second, also a first, the upper in my big toe area got so thin that I could see my sock peeking through. Some wear is to be expected, but maybe they are using different materials.
Overall, this is still my go-to shoe, and I recommend it to anyone needing a little support.

FesterwNot my favorite GuideI've been wearing the Guide shoes since the 7, these new ISO2 are my least favorite.
Gave them my usual 2 week short (3-5 mile) run break in then did a 13 mile run one weekend. The next morning my left arch hurt more than ever before and has continued for almost a week with no running.
I'll keep them for short runs but will stick with my Omni 16 for long runs.

LilFiz99Good for a few monthsThe shoes felt good out of the box and for the first 3 1/2 months but I busted through the side of one of them at about that time. I know it mostly has to do with how my foot strikes the ground but I would like if the fabric held up until I at least wore the rubber down some more.
